Thank you for what you wrote at 4.11 this afternoon, great encouragement.

I've been looking for an id phrase. Would you mind if I barrow and use: "What i can lose, i can win" ?

The one thing I see is how easy you, and MO and Monolisa and many others make this trading stuff look easy, effortless and fun. The thing I don't see is all the work, study, hard lessons and discouragement you went through, and kept going through until the lights went on and you see.

Thanks for persisting and persisting and now helping light our ways,

Never lose more in a day than you can make in a day.

Pay your self a percentage of your profits every week or after increasing your account by x%.

Go for a small gain (10-20p) before trading for a large gain.

Almost always demand a better price to enter into a position.

If you increase your account to a number that has ANY influence over whether or not you take a trade then cut your account size in half.

You may be fooled in one time frame, but you cannot be fooled in every time frame; always check the higher TF momentum.

Not all momentum is tradable, sometimes you need to wait for even greater momentum within the current time frame and other times you need to wait for even greater momentum within a larger time frame.

been up for over 24 hrs, with a couple unintentional naps sitting straight up in my chair:D


crazy a$$ day to say the least

my eyes look like i have been on a 2 week bender-- havent drank anything either

Only had one trade last week, been busy at work =[

good for 119pips. We'll see how the next zl turns out.



I've been skimping through the DOP posts, at first I thought that this topic may be beyond me.. but I think I'm slowly getting it. Keep up the good posts.

Bingo. Had a max drawdown of 25 which was ok by me, but ideally I shouldnt have had that much even.. I entered too early based on the hourly tf. Wish I could have my FULL concentration on it, would have been able to get in at a better price too... thats the disadvantage with trading at work unfortantely. I see I'm not the only one who took this trade =)

Try to train your self to only sleep 4 hours a day

That is:

14 hours of trading

4 hours of sleeping

&

Three 2 hour breaks

I think that we all had our eyes on that trade

@es/pip

I noticed your e/j charts have a fixed grid by 10 (137.75 , 137.85 , 137.95 , etc) and several other traders here also have lines similar to that. I tried to look for it in the setting but it doesn't seem to appear anywhere. Is that an indicator? can you please tell me where to find it? It'd be nice to have a cleaner chart and easier to read too

Just testing USD/JYP I expect it to retrace down a bit now, not much tho I think..
97.074 level seems to be holding 3 hit on this level so far, & after 3 bearish candle I expected price to retrace back up a bit, on the HR there is 2 Bullish KR candles, current 2nd bullish KR candle hit my sell limit. so am in.
Daily is still bearish.

Hmm.. this is what happened after entry..
got stopped out after having a pretty tight stop, silly me.
but there was some other good entries after I put in pic
